The hotel was very beautiful and clean, the staff was really friendly and nice. This is a great place to stay if you are looking for a quiet and relaxing time
The attention from the staff is impeccable. Outstanding experience the best hotel in all of Barahona and its vicinity. I will certainly come back and relive a truly natural oasis.
What a gorgeous property! We slept in a super comfortable tree house that was so peaceful. It was the best night's sleep we have had in years. The staff was very attentive and accommodating. The restaurant was delicious. We cannot wait to go back!
This place is beautiful the only thing is that when u do check in they tell u the name of the room name to go to. No direction no one to tell y where to go how far we had to walk all around to finally realize where it was. Other then that amazing place.
Beautiful mountain hotel with lots of vegetation and rivers, a relaxed place to spend a couple of days away from crowds. It's even better if you plan to go with family or groups of friends.
property is great but the way to get there is not easy. there is 2 different way and if you take the wrong one you will be in danger so make sure to get the right one but even that one is not danger but is very difficult to get there.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I was sent the wrong direction link and got lost. never found the place and non one would answer the phone. Please check this vendor as it is a scam. My credit card has been notified.
Beautiful Resort in the Mountains of Paraiso, Dominican Republic. If you are visiting for the first time get the ride provided by the resort it will help you reach the place because you need a good 4x4 vehicle to get there. But it will not disappoint you!!!
Since you arrive the smiles abound with Joanna in the Front Desk-Manager of the property who will let you know about the activities available.
Josie and Jose are the persons Incharged of guiding you in the hiking, tubing and horseback riding very nice and polite.
And Finally the Chef Elvis de La Cruz in the Restaurant will surprise you with delicious meals on a daily basis
Beautiful comfortable cabins, with A/C, hot water and good beds. I will definitely return!!!
The property itself looks nice but the problem is that nobody tells you the reality of the roads to get there, I got lost , sleep in my vehicle, had our lives in dangerous and nobody answered the phone when I called for help. There’s a lack of communication between the staff the works at the property and the staff that organized your stay, they don’t give you a direct number to speak to the staff that is at the hotel. I ask to cancel my reservation after being traumatized by the experience and still haven’t heard back from them.
C’était un séjour magnifique ! Dépaysement total !
Une très belle nature ! A conseiller entre amis et famille ! Minimum rester 2 jours ! Merci de pouvoir laisser la voiture en bas et de remonter avec le 4/4 de l’hôtel ! Service parfait ! Tout est fait pour se sentir libre et heureux ! Bravo
Es una desconexión total, excelente para descansar y relajarse, los manantiales subterráneos es algo impresionante, el personal es muy atento y eficiente, la comida es de muy buena calidad.
It’s quite an adventure to get there. Need a 4x4 vehicle, once you arrive it’s paradise.
Know that cell signal is very weal and only in the restaurant you will find a weak wifi. So can be isolated form the world a big part of your day
The places lease is amazing and is really eco. Bring a good book and your camera
